I'm writing a paper and whether or not torture is a justifiable act. I just wanna hear some your opinions, later i'll put up some scenarios to see how you fell about them.

slim, seeing as this is university level work, you got to go for the "anti-torture" school of thought. use selected quotes from Hobbes' LEVIATHAN, Plato's REPUBLIC, and Machiavelli's THE PRINCE, and you will get an "A". Sounds like a philosophy/humanities beartrap, and you don't want to step in it. You could also throw in a bit of John Locke's Treatise on Government for political liberties, but i think that Hobbes' covers that pretty well.
